The Delaware & Raritan Canal State Park and Six Mile Run Reservoir Site could be part of a program included in a stop-gap budget measure that will open state parks to privatization.

Both areas fall within Franklin’s boundaries.

Gov. Phil Murphy on June 30 signed the $7.7 billion stop-gap budget, designed to fund the state through the end of September. The state’s budget process has been interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and state legislators are scrambling to find ways to make up for projected income deficits caused by the state’s economic shutdown.
